Sizing & Safety

How to Size a Helmet

Helmet should lay flat on head, and when fitted properly and should not move – follow the “2 V 1” rule (See diagram)

Take two (2) fingers and place them above the eyebrow. The helmet should lay flat against the participant’s forehead, with limited skin showing.

Take two fingers; make a "V" shape. Place the two V’s around your ears. These fingers represent the straps that lay flat around the ear.

Have youth do up the clasp. Take one finger, and place it between the chin, and the strap - that is all the space that should be allowed. ** Once fitted properly, the helmet should not move more than one (1) inch in any direction
